In October 2017 the Indian feminist sphere exploded with debate around what came to be known as #LoSha (a list of sexual harassers in Indian academia).1 This list originated on the Facebook page of law student Raya Sarkar (living in the United States). It then traveled as a crowdsourced Google Doc that promised anonymity to those entering names of sexual harassers. Soon after, a statement against the list was published on Kafila.online, which is a collaborative and progressive blog. The statement demanded the retraction of the list since the: (...) manner of naming can delegitimize the long struggle against sexual harassment, and make our task as feminists more difficult. We appeal to those who are behind this initiative to withdraw it, and if they wish to pursue complaints, to follow due process, and to be assured that they will be supported by the larger feminist community in their fight for justice.
